What is Corporate Finance

Corporate finance encompasses a number of different services. It is traditionally seen as only the sale and purchase of companies, but also involves producing business plans for existing companies looking for additional funding for working capital or asset purchases, producing cash flows, share valuations for tax purposes, retirement planning and developing exit strategies for owners of companies, among other types of work.

It is not only large limited companies that benefit from corporate finance work, as it is relevant to all people running any size of business.

Understanding Your Needs

Our service to you starts with an initial free consultation in which we get to know you and what you require from us. This meeting is entirely without obligation and enables us to understand your position and how we can help.

Depending on the particular service you require from us, we will produce a strategy for you to follow and our input can be as much or as little as you would like. We pride ourselves on providing advice and action that is practical with using technical jargon relied upon by many others in our industry.

In the case of business sales and purchases we can provide the initial valuation and then stay involved in all aspects of the process from marketing through to finding a purchaser and negotiating a deal with an interested party.
